The UEFA Champions League season is unpredictable so far.

In the new format tournament, recognized clubs are struggling to rise to the top of the table and, to make matters worse, will have to fight for a place in the knockout rounds.

However, English expert Jamie Carragher decided to try his luck and presented four main contenders to triumph in the tournament.

"In the knockout rounds, no one would want to face the Real Madrid team, because no matter how they play, the Spaniards always have a chance to move forward. Of course, this year, Real hasn’t been able to properly replace Toni Kroos, and there is also a lack of balance between defense and attack."

"Inter was close to achieving their goal in 2023 when they only lost to Manchester City in the Champions League final. This year, the Italians are strong again, just like Bayern Munich, which always shines in the later stages of the tournament."

And, of course, Liverpool, which so far is progressing without stumbles. So, these are the four teams that everyone will want to avoid," the expert clarified.
